It’s a great idea, sadly the EQ gameplay does not interest me at all, but I’m all in for the idea of fake players in a single player/small coop only “FMMORPG”. I’d love it if people tried to do this with every multiplayer game before sunsetting them.
For good chinese Manhua, take a look at Ancient Sovereign of Eternity (aka Ultimate of All Ages), possibly the best ever Xianxia/Cultivation story in comic format. Magic (or Demon) Emperor is also great. And Martial Peak is good for the first 2000 or so chapters. Chinese comedy stuff tends to be fairly good as well, like Top Tier Providence.
Also, Solo Leveling is typical op MC done as cliched as possible, just the art style that’s quite good, although a bit overdone these days. Everybody is trying to copy Redice’s art right now. Koreans have crafted some amazing wuxia manhwas though: Gosu, Legend of the Northern Blade, and Red Storm are examples of amazing completed works in the martial arts murim genre.
